Decision-Making in a Global Economy In a recent State of the Union Address, the President of the United States announced the formation of the "National Export Initiative," an important endeavor that is necessary for long-term, sustainable economic growth for the country. The president's goal is to double exports within 5 years, which, it is hoped, should reduce unemployment by adding 2 million jobs. This is the first time in history that the United States has put a real focus on government-wide export promotion. Since then, the president has signed an Executive Order that formed the "Export Promotion Cabinet" within the presidential administration. The Department of Commerce is an important player in this initiative and is charged with making sure that U.S. businesses can actively participate in international markets by increasing their exports of goods, services, and agricultural products. Part 1b If you were a member of the Cabinet, what would you do to achieve these goals? Address the following in 1,000+ words: 1. Increase exports of small and medium-sized businesses. a.

Prepare a 3 page paper based on your on-line research. Objective : Assess political, legal, cultural, and economic influences on international business that may affect your global product/service. Background: A country\'s business environment may be influenced by the importance of family, religious beliefs and demographic trends. It is useful to gain social and cultural awareness about the country you are considering for your global product/service. In addition, political stability is commonly related to the type of government and degree of corruption present in a country. A company my also face various business regulations and legal constraints that could affect global business decisions. Globalization Case Study: You are a senior executive of a firm that is seeking to expand globally. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has tasked you to develop a Business Plan (see Global Business Plan Activities). During this case study, be thinking of a product or service which you may wish to be the focus of your Business Plan. For Activity #2, the CEO asked you to study national differences and political economics associated with the Business Plan. For your selected global product or service, assess the potential markets in five parts of the world: Argentina, Ghana, the Czech Republic, Indonesia, and one nation selected by the student. Make a table that characterizes and briefly discusses the growth potential, political risk, economic risk, legal risk, and cultural differences that might influence the costs of doing business in the country. Also address cultural considerations that might affect the firm’s business practices in the country and the overall attractiveness of the country for your company\'s product/service. Be sure to cite your sources. Solution Growth Potential that might influence the cost of doing business in the country In the current economic climate, growth remains a key government priority. The literature on economic growth has turned to the effects of country\'s political, legal, economic and social institutions on wealth and long-term growth (Acemoglu et al. (Acemoglu et al., 2001 and Acemoglu et al., November 2002), Dollar and Kraay (Dollar & Kraay, 2003), Easterly and Levine (Easterly & Levine, 1997), Hall and Jones (Hall Robert & Jones Charles, 1999), Knack and Keefer (Knack & Keefer, 1995), Mauro (Mauro, 1995), Rodrik et al. (R, A, & Trebbi, 2002), and many others). It is obvious that countries with better institutions grow faster. However, as noted by Rodrik et al. (Hanusch, 30 June 2011), it is difficult to identify which institutions matter and how does one acquire them. This is a question of some practical importance. In recent years, the proliferation of datasets aiming to measure a wide gamut of institutional reforms allowed economists to make progress in this area. In this context, the World Bank has been publishing a series of annual Doing Business reports since 2004 investigating regulations that enhance business activi.
